There are two types of licenses available: Use under Copyright and Creative Commons licenses. The selected license is displayed next to each downloadable file and includes a direct link to the full license text outlining the permitted uses.Use under Copyright

Creative Commons (CC) licenses expand the permissions granted under copyright law. They allow third parties to share and reproduce publications, provided the original source is credited. Some CC licenses also permit adaptations (e.g., translations) and commercial use. On PubData, authors can choose from six different Creative Commons licenses, which must be respected by anyone reusing the content. More information about Creative Commons licenses is available here.
